Peas, wattles, and daisies are listed as such, regardless of habit.

The problem with identifying woody weeds in parks is that many are too small to flower. Robinia pseudoacacia has very simple compound leaves whereas Gleditisia triancanthos has bipinnate compound leaves and bunches of larger thorns.
